Chapter 705 No One Cared About Her
James and Jenny sat in a private booth in the restaurant.
Jenny wanted to ask him how he was doing, but she didn't know how to phrase it. She was
afraid that she'd make him upset.
"I've been so busy lately that I haven't had the time to catch up with you. How have you
been?” James asked. He had a smile on his face as if things were just like before.
Jenny felt even more worried seeing him like this. ’I'm doing pretty well. What about you?"
"Me?* James raised his eyebrows and slowly poured her a cup of coffee." I'm fine."
In fact, with someone to yell at every day he got home, he felt even better than before.
Jenny wanted to ask him about his situation with Jolene, but she knew it would upset him if
she did. She had to keep it to herself.
Not long after, the waiter served them their food.

her a plate of mashed potatoes.
Jenny shook her head. "Not at all. On the contrary, I think I gained weight."
"Nonsense. You should be eating more." James handed her yet another plate of food as if
he was worried that she didn't have enough.
Jenny didn't refuse the food. Back when they were under Mr. Birkett's mentorship, James
would give her food just like this.
At the thought of Mr. Birkett, Jenny asked, ’Have you heard from Mr.
Birkett lately? He's been in Skaland for quite some time now."
Mr. Birkett would usually visit Skaland two weeks at a time. But now, he seemed to be
there for a while.
"I'm not sure, either. He did try to contact me before, but I wasn't around.’ James didn’t
think it was unusual. He smiled, saying, "Old people are like that. He probably found a
really nice place and decided to settle down.'
"Really?’ Jenny ate, feeling worried.
"If you're worried about him, I'll get someone to find him," James said, sensing she was
anxious.
Jenny thought about it for a while. In the end, her anxiety took over. "Yes. He's already of
old age, and no one is by his side."
Mr. Birkett had trained a few people, but Jenny was his last student. She didn't contact her
other seniors often, only James. When she joined, only James was there. The rest had gone
off on their own paths.
"Alright. I'll get someone to find him when I get back. Don't you worry," James promised.
He learned from Mr. Birkett not because he loved painting; he just wanted to enhance his
wisdom. He didn't expect to meet Jenny there. In retrospect, it was the best decision he
had ever made.

She bribed the waiters and learned from them that Jenny and James were in the private
booth. She rushed toward them at once.
She slid open the door. They were stunned, turning their heads toward her.
"Jenny, you bitch!"
Jolene darted at Jenny before they could even react. Right before her sharp claws landed
on Jenny's face, she was sent flying by one of Jenny's kicks. She crashed onto the ground,
considerably hurt.
"Sorry. Old habits die hard,' Jenny apologized, but there was no hint of remorse on her
face. Jolene came looking for trouble, and Jenny wasn't going to hold back.
"You. J..." Jolene stammered, unable to even say a word. Tears streamed down her face.
What a pity. No one there cared about her.
